How to use/apply

Step 1. Apply base color all over the eyelid up to the eyebrow.
Step 2. Sweep lid color from the eyelash line to eye crease.
Step 3. Apply contour color to the eye crease and blend.
Step 4. Create definition along the lash line with liner color.

This was WAY easier to do than any of the other eye shadows I've tried to use.

My everyday eye-shadowI first tried the charcoal smokes quad 6 years ago. And that's when I switched all my make up over to Maybelline!! It's now my everyday eye-shadow. I can play it up many different ways no matter what I'm doing..absolutely love love love this collection!!! Just had to replace mine as I use it everyday. But there's no other eye shadow on the market that compares to the colors in this quad!!

Missing Indian Summer DuoFor years I used the Indian Summer duo... it was the perfect color match for my complexion. They got rid of the duos and replaced with the quads... the closest colors being Designer Chocolates. Every time I put it on, I long for my older color set. The quality is good, but it's just not the same...

My Favorite Thing Maybelline Makes!I am not the best when it comes to pairing eyeshadows up together. With the quads, it helps me know what colors go well together. Also, I like the idea that they tell you where to place the color! I need all the help I can get in the makeup department :) Thank you Maybellline! I love all the quads! I get compliments on my makeup as well.

Some nice shades, but...I've bought a couple of these palettes and use about once a week. I like the texture and they go on smooth and blend well. Although, they tend to fade after about 6 hours. I would use them more if they came in a triple, or doubles, rather than a quad, because I find the colors in the palettes I use the most of, are the Lid and Crease sections, which are the smallest sections, but should be the largest sections, imo. I found the section marked 'liner' goes mostly unused. The second color I use the least of is the 'base'. So, I've almost used up the parts of the palettes most useful to me, and will be tossing the quad. Unfortunately, Maybelline does not offer the colors contained in the quads, in singles. Also, the choices for matte finish is very limited, in the single eye-shadows. I probably will never purchase these again, and will be looking for similar colors to the ones I like, in singles, elsewhere, and not at Maybelline.

my go to smokey eye for evening wearThis was the perfect combination of colors to create my out on the town party smokey eye look. Silky smooth, saturated colors. It even has the placement embedded in the colors so it's good proof!

The colors you want, coordinated in one package!I like that the color quads do a daytime/ work eye, and also you can rev it up into a smokey eye for nighttime, or wherever you want!

A Must Have Palette!I just bought this guy in the "chai latte" palette and I when I swatched the shades, they all had a good pigmentation. However, they are a little chalky but they're still good for the price. Also, I like the colors and I love that it comes with a transition and a dark color in the palette! I definitely want to try it out more.

Do you still carry the eyeshadow velvet cRush 20Q? &nbsp;I love the crease color and can&rsquo;t find this quad. &nbsp;I found some on eBay but am concerned it isn&rsquo;t really Maybelline.&nbsp;

I am obsessed with the crease (#3) color in the Designer Chocolates quad. How can I find out what the shade is called and purchase it separately?

Asked by: Jennnn

Hi Jennnn! We are sorry to inform you that you cannot purchase shade in palettes separately. All of our palettes include exclusive shades to that specific palette. In order to get that particular shade again would be to purchase the palette. We apologize for the inconvenience but we are happy to hear that you love this shade. We will be sure to pass your comments on to the rest of the team!
